  1. did they skip over some of the violent action packed movies of the 70s like Towering Inferno, Dirty Harry, Poseidon Adventure for some of their perceived kid friendly silent-action pictures such as 2001: A Space Odyssey, Planet of the Apes,? or maybe convince them to sneak in The Last House on the Left!

  5. I think TLJ is naturally an easy film to hate on. When one is watching it, it is new and takes lots of turns. One might initially completely dig it and the feelings it encompasses, but these feelings do not stay. Shrugging off TLJ months later is a lazy thing to do, but I foresee a lot of hardcore fans doing that. The Phantom Menace, Titanic, and Avatar are other films that were widely loved only to be thrown into the back of the head when it comes to surface conversation. I think this same surface disapproval of TLJ's legacy will be easy for a lot of people just because of the basic eliminations the first made for the franchise. It is like asking random people what they think of politics, and they shrug. Imagine watching cartoons with the kids and refreshing the kids on how great the movie is only to forget about it. Or associating an experience with a bad memory, or feeling meh about The Hobbit trilogy after the last one and then forgetting the movement it brought. If anything, TLJ was overstuffed with plot turns and it didn't flow as smooth as the others. But I think rejecting TLJ would be like thinking back on something that supposedly universally 'sucked' and agreeing with the universe that it sucked.
  6. "no one dies in sci-fi" is that assuming spirituality/afterlife is part of sci-fi? If Quaritch returns, then I think Tsu'tey would have easily survived. The film Avatar (2009) educates the viewer on how Quaritch should have died and how Tsu'tey should have lived. I'll be interested to see more of Quaritch, I think his initial pitch was a shallow rebellion against Eywa or something
  7. Quaritch is dead though, right? Avatar 2009 clearly set up the elements of that world to make it seem like he died almost instantly after getting hit with the arrow.
  8. economics are invented by man. economics could follow natural principles, but ultimately this market is a function of us. economics as an answer to carbon emissions looks to be a slow answer that is going to cost us.
